Customer Reviews simply great every song has a different mood, different instruments, and different (greatness?). theres not much i can say about this great album. nice job on this one ben. this is clearly some of your best work. Ben at his best The fact that it is ostensibly a collection of demos belies the strength of these songs and their cohesiveness as a collection. This is by far the most consistently enjoyable KOLS record. Here we find Ben's voice more controlled, the melodies stronger, the lyrics more resonant. The acoustic tracks, 23C in particular, are Ben's most mature works to date; the more anthemic, electric tunes rise to emotional heights not seen before, either. If you go for heart-on-your-sleeve singer-songwriter indie-folk/rawk confessionals, you really cannot beat this. the word amazing is over-used, but it is fully appropriate. clever songs about mid-20's love (complicated, long distance, open-ended), christmas misery, and post-college pre-adulthood confusion. every song on here is a paragon of indie rock songwriting. beautifully orchestrated, sometimes with acoustic guitar, wild distortion, farfisa, keyboards . . . and sometimes it's just him. get this album and you'll fall in love with it. and if you don't, odds are you'll know somebody who will and you can just pass it on to them to make their life complete. .
